eRevalue Media Release Announcement 2 2015

A new emerging issues management system – Datamaran™ – is being launched by eRevalue today, Tuesday 2 June, to an exclusive group of companies. By delivering real-time analytics on financial, environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues, Datamaran helps business leaders see and understand data in interactive visualizations – a must-have for companies today.

Datamaran extracts narrative information from the web to provide insights on regulation, competition and public opinion. Launching on the first anniversary of eRevalue’s incorporation, Datamaran is the first software (SaaS) of its kind.

“This is undoubtedly a big moment for us, and also for our first users,” said Marjella Alma, CEO and co-founder of eRevalue. “Datamaran is the first software that can visualize combined ESG and financial insights, and we’re happy to announce that a select group of global companies will be able to use it to its full capacity.”

Datamaran delivers a tailored view of the issues that matter most to a business from various strategic perspectives, such as compliance, legal and communications. It extracts narrative from millions of publicly available sources – legislation, corporate reports, websites and social media – to alert decision makers to relevant developments in real-time.

Using these objective insights, businesses can get ahead of emerging regulation, build contingency plans for investments in new markets, track developments related to business partners and peers, and engage directly with the opinions shaping their reputation.

“Ultimately, it’s about helping companies strategize more efficiently. Datamaran does the hard work, cutting through the noise of websites, reports and social media sites, so companies can make decisions with more confidence and foresight,” said Alma.

An exclusive group of companies will be Datamaran’s first users, having worked closely with eRevalue on the development of the software during its pilot phase. Thanks to the fruitful collaboration, Datamaran meets the needs of its users, helping them navigate the complex regulatory, industry, and public opinion landscapes.

Mahindra Sanyo Steel Pvt. Ltd. was one of the piloteers that contributed to the product development process. Managing Director Mr. Uday Gupta said: “We are excited to be on of the first users of Datamaran, as it captures appropriate data and critical insights for us amid today’s ‘infobesity.’ With Datamaran, we can connect our strategy, brand promise, and reputational capital to build a robust risk and opportunity framework against the fast-changing business landscape.”

Anyone involved in strategic decision-making – on risk, public affairs, sustainability, legal, procurement, business development and other strategic matters – can apply Datamaran’s analytics to their everyday work to track trends and share insights instantly; consultants and advisors can do the same with their clients.

“Datamaran helps companies turn their blind spots into bright spots; it is a must-have for companies that want to find out what regulations they need to comply with on an issue-by-issue basis – now and in the future; determine what issues present risks or opportunities for them in terms of competition and reputation; and engage with the right stakeholders on those issues,” said Helle Bank Jorgensen, Chairman of eRevalue’s Board of Directors.
